    I was playing around with online maps today. I was of the opinion that Google Maps was usually first with the newest streets in my area. A few minutes ago I compared Garmin City Navigator North America NT (on-line) vs. Google vs. Open Street Maps. To my surprise, Open Street Maps had streets in a new development that neither Google nor Garmin had! (I am actually not surprised that Garmin didn't have it.)

    https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/44.7357/-93.1003

    Also, I did check HERE back in the day. It looks like I need to create an account. Are there any other free on-line maps that I should be comparing?

      @James-Schnoor, OSM is highly dependent on user input. Just like wiki. If someone adds the route, it will be there. I think HERE is more dependent on official government data, which we all know usually is slow 😉

      I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

      Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.
